Movie Poster: ‘Sin City: A Dame to Kill For’

Sin City is not
only Robert Rodriguez’s best film, but one of the best comic book adaptations
of all time. Since its release in 2005, Frank Miller has become a full blown right wing crackpot, and his creative output has
gotten progressively worse. In addition,
Robert Rodriguez has continued to be the very definition of mediocrity. Such massive disappointments aside, Sin City is still a one of kind film. Its kind is sorely needed these days, as the
term “comic-book movie” has become synonymous with superheroes and not much
else. Thankfully, the sequel was
confirmed on April 13th. Now, before it
even goes in front of the cameras, the first piece of marketing has emerged: An
official teaser poster for Sin City: A
Dame to Kill For.

A Dame to Kill For
was the first Sin City tale I ever
read. It told the story of a
photographer who gets caught up with an old flame and pays a huge price in the
process. That same character was played
by Clive Owen in the first Sin City
film.
He was the protagonist of The
Big Fat Kill. Whether Clive will
reprise his role is unknown at the moment, as the cast for this new film has
yet to be confirmed. Either way, it’s
nice to see the return of this franchise.
I just hope that Miller won’t be the sole director as has been
rumored. The world doesn’t need a sequel
to Machete, but it does need a sequel
to Sin City. Quite badly, I might add.
